Yes there is a way to remove the DNS option from DHCP discover/request but really just wanted a simple way USG does not add then to the Global zone forwarder.

What does not having any Global zone forwarder do you might ask? it allows the USG to be a DNS server to do the lookups by going to root server then (TLD) DNS server till it gets to the answer.
